GAL, interesting about dropping the IC. I've been thinking I should looking into changing IC, just didn't know if its too hard to start over with someone else. Plus I felt that if her thinking was challenging my own, I was the one that needed to rethink things. I'll just let the mom thing go for now. I don't know what it means and could mean nothing.
labug, I don't know what the consequences are to tell you the truth. We have an estimated offer that will change depending on our taxes. So I just don't know... she has to accept her final school I think in April. But if we're waiting for much longer then having to get the offers redone based on different #s - it's stressful any way you look at it. I applied for the fasfa under my income alone because that's what the advisors said to do because D17 lives with me. But our taxes it looks like may be filed married/joint, so the income will be different & I'll need to write a letter or file something for difference. Anyone been in limbo & dealing with college financing? I don't know how this stuff works. Financial advisor probably won't be able to help me much, though, until the taxes are done.
